Default Sam was right!!!

Those small gas engines from Harbor Freight are the cats meow! Needed a replacement for the FIL Scotts edger next to the JD (that I use sometimes ) and remembered that Sam praised the HF engines...

Went in and paid 75 bucks...they gave me 20% off and it bolted right up with the supplied plate....

Gas and oil and within 2 pulls it was off and running.....all this and a year warranty?? Cant beat it.

I bought the 3hp Predator...

Good info....I have a 15yo string mower that might be a candidate soon.

That garage is way too organized and has way too much wide open spaces, I am envious!
I like the insulation and modine too. There's enough room in there for a coal bin to feed that AK 140!!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
